Road rage…I hope I never have it

We were pulling out of a parking space in front of the Armory in Albany, when a man coming from the other direction accelerated towards us with amazing speed. This man flipped us off and continued to cut us off. It was the man that made the mistake by accelerating so fast out of his parking space towards us, not the other way around.

A couple yards down the road, this big gas-guzzling truck waited for our little Toyota to come near it, he then veered into our lane and nearly hit us. It was terrifying. He continued to do this until we turned to the left, because of his bullying.

This man must have had too much to drink but he definitely was the perfect example of road rage.

What an unnecessary reason to get angry. Yes, some people drive recklessly, but there is no reason why you need to flip them off and get angry about it. Anger and frustration are two very different things.

As a beginning driver I get used to people being angry at me because of my driving. I learn after every mistake I make, becoming a better driver every day.
